I have been wanting to pick up a C6 myself - maybe a GS or a base model with the manual. Price are going to slide nicely come later this year...
GT500 has a top speed of 200mph thanks to lots of great aero.

They didnt really show off a Base car.
No, the Z07 has some additional aero stuff, carbon ceramic brakes, and Pilot Cup tires. Z07 is the Stage 3 package. Z06 with the Stage 3/Z07 package matches the ZR1 in performance and is faster around Milford than the ZR1.
GM has said that the Z06, even loaded, will be under 100k.
Either way, all Z06s get the LT4, bigger two-piece rotors with 6/4 piston calipers, and a host of stuff.

These are all rumors right now.
No, what you said was mostly BS that people made up.
